Rousset subsequently formed Les Talens Lyriques, an ensemble dedicated to performing some of the more flamboyant operatic and orchestral works from the 18th century. At the heart of the ensemble is Rousset’s academic research and specialism in the music of the Baroque, Classical and pre-Romantic periods. This was followed by the creation of his own ensemble, Les Talens Lyriques, in 1991. She subsequently studied in Basel with Chiara Banchini, studies that enabled her to discover the world of historically informed interpretation and enjoy working with musicians such as Hopkinson Smith, or Pedro Memelsdorff (she played several years in the medieval ensemble Mala Punica).įounded by Amandine Beyer in 2006, Gli Incogniti takes its name from the Venetian Accademia degli incogniti, and attempts also to adopt the spirit of the name it bears by cultivating a taste for the unknown in all its forms: experimentation with sonorities, seeking out new repertoire, and the taking a new interpretative approach to the well-known works such as The Four Seasons.Įarlier recordings were devoted to reinterpreting the canonical works of Vivaldi and Bach, but Gli Incogniti’s more recent recordings have been dedicated to composers less known: Nicola Matteis (2009) and Johann Rosenmuller (2010).Ĭhristophe Rousset studied harpsichord at La Schola Cantorum in Paris with Huguette Dreyfus, and subsequently at the Conservatoire Royal at The Hague with Bob van Asperen winning the prestigious First Prize in the 7th Bruges Harpsichord Competition at the age of 22. It was in Aix-en-Provence that Amandine Beyer began studying music at the age of four: recorder, then violin.Īfter completing her studies of modern violin at the Paris Conservatory and having written a dissertation on Karlheinz Stockhausen, she ultimately discovered that her bliss was Early Music. While the Baroque is the primary concern, each also has resurrected works from later periods if there is a sense of their being relatively unknown or ripe for reinterpretation. Each has formed a performing ensemble, Gli Incogniti by Beyer and Rousset’s Les Talens Lyriques for this purpose.
